Daughter suing over Dad's slow execution

(NEWSER) – An Ohio inmate put to death for murder was tortured by his unusually slow execution, the man's daughter said today as she announced plans to file a lawsuit over her father's death. Dennis McGuire's daughter, Amber, referred to the "agony and terror" of watching her father as he appeared to gasp in his final moments yesterday—using the same words the condemned man's attorneys used in trying to stop his execution using a previously untried method of lethal injection.
